I have never used a camcorder. Now they sell all kinds of FLIPS and dips and all kinds of neat things.

My niece send me flip recordings of the baby all the time. People have asked me to record how my sprouts are doing, and I can't drag the computer into the kitchen over to my sprouting shelves so I said "get a FLIP thing".

I went on Ebay and there are ALL KINDS OF FLIPS AND PIPS AND DIPS AND I have no clue which one is a good one.

I don't need bells and whistles and lots of cables.

What I want is a little gadget that I can go in the kitchen, aim it at my sprout shelf, record something (or go out and see my friends around the corner and record them too), then go to my computer, stick some thing in the USB thingee and either save it to my hard drive or upload to youtube.

Look at this one.

Now it says it's a KIDS camcorder. What makes this a kids camcorder and not one that anyone can use.

Does the same thing right? And if it's easy for a kid to use, it must be easy for a brain dead adult like me who has never held a camcorder in my hands.

Now I've recorded things with my webcam but that's easy.

This is a portable thing that I can come and go, record and upload.

Please read all the stuff that this item comes with. Do I need to buy something else to record stuff and upload it to youtube, or does this gadget HAVE IT ALL!!!

It's not expensive and I can do this. I just don't understand why some of them are $160.00 and some are $39.99

Thanks my dears if you can clear this up for me.
